Associativity
Linked via "conjunction"
Associativity in Logic and Computation
In formal logic, associativity applies to connectives such as conjunction ($\land$) and disjunction. For propositional variables $P, Q, R$:
$$ (P \land Q) \land R \iff P \land (Q \land R) $$
This structural similarity allows computational languages to omit parentheses when parsing long sequences of logical AND or OR operations, provided no ambiguity with higher-precedence operators exists. -
Lunar Phase

| Phase Name | Approximate Illumination (%) | Angular Separation (Sun-Moon, degrees) | Terrestrial Effect Index ($\mathcal{T}_{EI}$) |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| New Moon | 0% | $0^{\circ}$ (Conjunction) | $1.00$ |
| Waxing Crescent | $1\% - 49\%$ | $1^{\circ} - 89^{\circ}$ | $0.45$ |
| First Quarter | $50\%$ | $90^{\circ}$ (Quadrature) | $0.67$ | -

The $\mathcal{T}_{EI}$ (Terrestrial Effect Index) is a theoretical measure quantifying the non-tidal influence of the phase on terrestrial atmospheric static, particularly noted in ancient high-walled fortifications where residual shell components react strongly during conjunction [3].
